This is what happens when you let crazy people take over the city government
http://bagitnyc.org/about/
The City would be required to conduct a public education campaign —
which would include encouraging reusable bag use— prior to
implementation, including a multilingual notification letter to stores.
The City would be required to conduct a widespread distribution to
the public of free, reusable bags, in partnership with community and
nonprofit organizations.
The distribution would be targeted at low-income households and
food stores in areas with a high level of SNAP and WIC usage.
A store receiving its first violation would receive a warning, $250
fine for second violation, $500 for subsequent violations.
Signage would be required at the point of sale informing consumers
of the amount of the charge.
The City would provide annual reports to the Council and the public
on the outcomes of the initiative, including reduction in bag waste and
the use and distribution of reusable bags, based on a baseline
established at enactment.
regulate everything...
